Woman
You gotta be fortunate
You gotta be lucky now
I was just sitting here
Making good or bad
But I'm the kind of woman
That was built to last
They tried to raise in me
But they couldn't walk by my past
To save my town
I'd rather go hungry
Got all these wounds that just won't heal
Inside of me
And my blood flows
Through every man
In this godless land
That delivered me
I've cried so many tears even the blacked sea
Woman
This is a woman's world
This is my world
This is a woman's world
For this man's girl
Woman
There ain't a woman in this world
Not a woman of a girl
They can't deliver love
In this man's world
I won and I bred
I've cleaned and I've feared
And though my inner wits
I've been called a witch
I've crackled in the fire
And I've been called a liar
I've died so many times
I'm more than just coming alive
Woman
This is a woman's world
This is my world
This is a woman's world
For this man's girl
Woman
There ain't a woman in this world
Not a woman of a girl
They can't deliver love
And my blood flows
Through every man and every child
In this godless land
That delivered me
I've cried so many tears even the blacked sea
Woman this is a woman's world
This is my world
This is a woman's world
For this man's girl
Woman
There ain't a woman in this world
Not a woman of a girl
They can't deliver love
In this man's world
You gotta be lucky now
I was just sitting here
Making good or bad
But I'm the kind of woman
That was built to last
They tried to raise in me
But they couldn't walk by my past
To save my town
I'd rather go hungry
Got all these wounds that just won't heal
Inside of me
And my blood flows
Through every man
In this godless land
That delivered me
I've cried so many tears even the blacked sea
Woman
This is a woman's world
This is my world
This is a woman's world
For this man's girl
Woman
There ain't a woman in this world
Not a woman of a girl
They can't deliver love
In this man's world
I won and I bred
I've cleaned and I've feared
And though my inner wits
I've been called a witch
I've crackled in the fire
And I've been called a liar
I've died so many times
I'm more than just coming alive
Woman
This is a woman's world
This is my world
This is a woman's world
For this man's girl
Woman
There ain't a woman in this world
Not a woman of a girl
They can't deliver love
And my blood flows
Through every man and every child
In this godless land
That delivered me
I've cried so many tears even the blacked sea
Woman this is a woman's world
This is my world
This is a woman's world
For this man's girl
Woman
There ain't a woman in this world
Not a woman of a girl
They can't deliver love
In this man's world
